[0042] Working principle: the trimmer sends various control instructions such as the movement of the mechanical arm 11, the operation of the trimming tool 13, the rotation of the rotating tray 16, etc. through the remote control handle 2 terminal. These instructions are transmitted to the control assembly 4 of the trimming box 1 through the signal transmission unit 5. According to the received instructions, the control assembly 4 drives the mechanical arm 11 and the rotating motor 15 of the rotating tray 16 to work, so that the mechanical arm 11 moves according to the predetermined trajectory, the rotating tray 16 moves according to the set angle, and the trimming tool 13 is sent to the position of the bonsai branch to be trimmed. At the same time, the control assembly 3 controls the tool driving unit 9 to start the trimming tool 13 and adjust the included angle of the trimming tool 13 to perform trimming work. During the trimming process, the camera 10 installed on the column at the four corners of the trimming box 1 real-time shoots the image of the bonsai, and under the control of the control assembly 3 and the control unit 4, the image is transmitted to the display unit 17 display screen of the remote control handle 2 through the signal transmission unit 4 and the image acquisition unit 8. The trimmer can observe the image on the display unit 17 display screen to know the trimming situation of the bonsai in real time, and adjust the operation instructions of the remote control handle 2 remote controller in time according to the actual needs, so as to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of the trimming work.
